Outlook is powered by a 3.6 liter V6 engine with variable valve timing and double overhead cams. It cranks out 263 hp and 244 lb-ft of torque with the single exhaust XE trim; and 267 hp and 247 lb-ft of torque with the dual exhaust XR trim. Both models feature a six-speed automatic transmission, and are available with front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. The power is more than sufficient to motivate the Outlook in spirited fashion.

Estimated mileage is 17 city/25 highway for the FWD; 17 city/24 highway for the AWD version.
